Brain stimulation to help arm and leg recovery after stroke
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation to see if it can improve arm and leg function in people who recently had a stroke. It may help with movement recovery in the first few months after stroke.
Ankara, YenimahalleAges 45 years+ - NCT06534684Recruiting
Brain stimulation (iTBS) for depression and thinking changes
This study tests whether a type of brain stimulation called iTBS can improve depression and thinking skills. It uses a magnetic coil over the scalp and is done on multiple days.
TromsøAges 22–65 - NCT07768397Recruiting
Comparing two brain-stimulation schedules for depression
This study tests two different schedules of a treatment called theta burst stimulation, which uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate the brain. It aims to find out if the faster schedule works better than the standard one for people with major depression.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–65 - NCT07770919Recruiting
Brain stimulation for generalized anxiety disorder
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called continuous theta burst stimulation) to see if it can reduce symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder. The treatment uses magnetic pulses to target areas of the brain involved in anxiety, and it may help if standard treatments haven't worked well.
Ho Chi Minh CityAges 18–65 - NCT07758010Recruiting
Brain stimulation for treatment-resistant depression
This study tests a type of brain stimulation called cTBS (continuous theta burst stimulation) applied to a specific part of the brain (the precuneus) to see if it helps with treatment-resistant depression. It aims to provide a new option for people who haven't found relief from standard treatments.
Belmont, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07749378Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for healthy decision making
This study uses gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation (like a magnetic pulse) to understand how healthy people make decisions. If you join, you will perform simple tasks while your brain activity is briefly affected, which may reveal how your choices work.
Würzburg, BavariaAges 18–40 - NCT06658769Recruiting
Brain stimulation to prevent confusion after surgery in older adults
This study tests if transcranial magnetic stimulation (a gentle brain stimulation) can help prevent or reduce confusion or memory problems after major surgery in people over 60. If you already have mild memory issues, this might help protect your thinking skills.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 60–120 - NCT07681284Recruiting
Can brain stimulation help cervical dystonia?
This trial tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called TMS can help reduce symptoms of cervical dystonia. It aims to see if gentle magnetic pulses to the head can improve neck muscle control without surgery.
Roma, RomaAges 18–85 - NCT07673913Recruiting
Blood markers and brain stimulation for hard-to-treat depression
This study is testing whether a new type of brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) can help people with treatment-resistant depression (depression that hasn't improved with standard medicines). It also looks at certain blood markers to see if they can predict how well someone will respond to this treatment.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–55 - NCT07635940Recruiting
Brain Stimulation and Social Thinking in Young Adults
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can improve how people understand social situations and process information. Researchers will use MRI scans to see how the brain changes during the treatment.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–60 - NCT07608588Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Language Recovery After Stroke
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help people regain language skills after a left-sided stroke, particularly for word-finding and meaning difficulties. Researchers will target specific brain regions to see if stimulation improves recovery.
Columbia, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07579494Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Autism Spectrum Disorder Symptoms
This study tests whether a type of magnetic brain stimulation can help reduce autism symptoms and improve thinking skills in young people aged 8–30 with autism. Researchers will measure changes in symptoms, brain function, and brain scans over time.
TaoyuanAges 8–30 - NCT07560878RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Brain Stimulation and Medication Study for Depression
This early-stage study tests a type of magnetic brain stimulation called theta burst stimulation combined with study medications to help treat moderate to severe depression. Researchers want to understand how this combination affects brain communication and may help reduce depressive symptoms.
Belmont, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07527403Recruiting
Brain Stimulation for Functional Neurological Disorder
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called theta burst repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to see if it can help improve movement problems caused by functional neurological disorder (FND). The study measures whether patients feel their symptoms improve after receiving this treatment.
RennesAges 18 years+ - NCT07488663Enrolling by invitation
Study on OCD treatment using stem cells and new therapies
This trial explores how stem cells and innovative treatments might help people with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). It includes people who respond well to medication and those who do not. The goal is to better understand OCD and find new ways to treat it.
MilanAges 18–65 - NCT07467473Enrolling by invitation
Brain stimulation study for depression
This trial uses a technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (a gentle magnetic pulse) to see if activating a specific brain area helps people with depression feel more positive emotions. It involves brain imaging and memory tasks.
Tallahassee, FloridaAges 18–65 - NCT07466277Recruiting
Brain stimulation for social anxiety disorder
This study tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation can help treat social anxiety disorder. It uses magnetic pulses to target a brain area involved in fear and anxiety, and you may benefit if you have social anxiety and are not taking certain medications.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 16–70 - NCT07449338Recruiting
Study of accelerated brain stimulation for depression
This trial tests a faster version of a brain stimulation treatment called TMS for people with depression. The goal is to see how well it works and how tolerable it is.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07452939Recruiting
Brain stimulation to help memory after ICU delirium
This study tests if a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation can improve thinking and memory problems that can happen after a stay in the ICU with delirium. It may help people who are still having cognitive issues a few months after leaving the hospital.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 50–75 - NCT07439367Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve arm movement after stroke

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for theta burst stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 121 recruiting theta burst stimulation studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a theta burst stimulation trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a theta burst stimulation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
